Do you remember your old family vacations? Long hours spent in the backseat of a hot car, driving to local tourist spots, going from place to place on roads that seem to stretch on forever in an endless line of tedium. Whatever happened at the end of those drives was worth it as a kid, but it’s harder to stomach as an adult, as the drive is half the experience. Maybe you find the drive calming, peaceful, relaxing, but one thing is for sure: for some of us it’s just not a road trip without a little danger.
Which is why I have compiled a list of the few most spectacular, risky, adventurous, and dangerous roads in the world, to help break the boredom of those long drives. So buckle your seatbelt and get ready for the ride of your life.
